Maybe not yet, but over time North Dakota may move up on the list of states with significant dinosaur discoveries.
This article from MinotDailyPress.com talks about a particularly good site near Marmarth, North Dakota, where the ND Geological Survey says that fossils of the following dinosaurs were found this past summer: Triceratops, duck-billed dinosaurs, raptors and a tooth from a Tyrannosaurus rex, often called "T. rex," the largest meat-eating dinosuar (sic).
Without doing any type of search, this is my hunch: California, Montana, Utah, North Dakota.
It's more than just oil in North Dakota.
(By the way, if a newspaper is going to do a story on dinosaurs, the editors should make sure they spell the word "dinosaur" correctly. I assume this will be corrected; if so, when you click on the link, you will not see the same story I saw; if nothing else, the spelling will have been corrected.)
